Statesman in walled enclosure (4)
I believe the answer is:
eden
'statesman' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I can't understand how one could define the other.
'in walled enclosure' is the wordplay.
'in' says the answer is hidden in the clue.
'EDEN' is hidden in the letters of 'walled enclosure'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for eden that I've seen before include "The best of all gardens" , "Badly need the garden" , "The - - Project, Cornwall" , "The original garden?" , "The primal garden" .)
